I bought this scuttle 3 years ago. I am using it from November to mid April. It's a part of my shaving routine during these months. Warm lather is an affordable luxury, in my opinion. I'd say that I can't shave without my scuttle, especially the cold days of winter.

This little inexpensive synthetic brush makes rich lather in no time.

For one more time, I have to say that Cyril's soaps are excellent performers and I have great shaves every time I use them.

Edit: been meaning to buy a Georgetown seconds and ship via my forwarder but I can't justify enough usage to buy it.

I use mine a lot throughout the year, though I use my bowls as well. Wintertime is the only time I use it daily.
I like the scuttle because you can sit it on the counter and lather without holding it, and you can put room temp water in it to give it heft without having really hot lather. Or, if it's hot outside and you're into that sort of thing, you can use cold water. Although it excels in winter, a scuttle is not just for winter. Plenty of reason to use one all year round. MHO.

It's -12 Celsius at the moment. And, darned near that cold in my basement den. I sure look forward to my warm lather first thing in the morning. Couldn't start my day without it. The Schwarzweisskeramik takes up much of the counter, and is worth every square inch at this time of the year.

I absolutely love my G12 scuttle. I use it year-round. In warmer seasons, I just fill it with hot tap water but in colder weather I'll microwave it for optimum lather warmth. The G12 is an outstanding unit.

I had a scuttle on my wishlist for a long time and I finally bought one maybe around a month or two ago. Even though I was anticipating it, bringing warm lather up to my face for the first time was a really pleasant experience. I'm a slow shaver so sometimes I don't take the extra time to fill it up with hot water but when I do, it's a real treat. Even when the weather warms up and I start using cold water more regularly, I'm still going to use a scuttle as a general purpose lathering bowl. It's one of my favorite shaving tools.

I use a warm scuttle year round. In the summer months the mornings are cool, and the warm lather feels very good on the face. Barbers that use hot lather machines don't put them away in the summer months. Warm lather feels good 24/7.
